Bug#515073: linux-image-2.6.26-1-vserver-686: realtek r8139.ko shows erattic packets dropped (changes fast, always) from ifconfig

[supaplex]

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-vserver-686

This segment of the network is pretty quiet, but dropped packets are constantly 
counting.  Clearly a cosmetic bug imo, but someone using network monitoring 
might be unsetteled by what they think is a trend.

As for the kernel taint, I'm using the madwifi driver as the ath5k drivers 
don't operate on my hardware.

Bug#388453: fails to handle interrupt

[Vincent Zweije]

I cannot get to that computer now. Probably Monday night, perhaps
Sunday night.

I've monitored it a little until a few months ago, and hadn't gone.

Anyway, it's not critical, because the system keeps running. It's just
a remarkable error message.

I vaguely suspect that I've seen some interrupt improvements on another
system in 2.6.27 or 2.6.28, but that's probably entirely unrelated.

Ciao.  Vincent.

kernel-package works well for me since years now, thanks for for your work!

urgs thanks for the quick feedback!
could you please file upstream in bugzilla.kernel.org
so that upstream devs have a look at it and let us know bug number.

current trunk snapshots have up to 2.6.28.4.
(2.6.28.5 died due to different reasons)

please post there the

It should certainly be Y or M, whatever you would normally do for
framebuffer drivers should be fine. I've never tried it as M, I assume
it works fine. FWIW Fedora goes with Y. The .o is a little bit under
4000 bytes.

severity 513228 important

SRM considers the addition of hardware support to be of 'important'
severity (aka, would be nice to fix in a stable release if possible,
and of minimal risk to the existing install base).

That means that eth0 is managed by NetworkManager and not ifupdown.  You
should change "allow-hotplug eth0" to "auto eth0".
See /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian for more details.

Bug#461730: linux-2.6: Cannot pair with bluetooth headset with 2.6.21+

I don't know about lenny specifically, but this behavior is still
present in vanilla 2.6.26.

I don't know if this is a problem any longer, though.  I opened this bug
back when I was using bluetooth-alsa (now removed from Debian), which
required a connection to be established manually.  bluez-audio will
establish a connection on demand, and does so just fine once a link key
is obtained (which is still performed by "hcitool cc").

I can't comment on whether or not this issue might affect someone else;
all I can say is that it no longer bothers me.  (I did notice that the
Ubuntu bug I linked to has now been marked as resolved.)

Please feel free to close this report.  If someone objects, they are
welcome to reopen it under their own name.

Hello Ben,
sure it will work on my workstation, but other users will use the
NetworkManager (rather default configuration) together with CIFS/NFS
shares and the problem appears again.

The shut down process runs following steps:
[...]
*) K14network-manger(stops nm, get eth0 down?)
*) K14network-manger-dispatcher (stops nm-dis)
[...]
*) S31umountnfs.sh  Possible race when eth0 is already down?
Time-out messages from Kernel
*) S35networking'ifdown -a  only when no network fs is mounted
*) S36ifupdown  Cleaning up ifupdown
*) SS40umountfs unmount fs
*) SS60umountroot   unmount root fs
*) SS90halt bye bye


I think it's not a kernel related issue. I will look into step
K14network-manger to verify my suspicion.

Nice greetings,
Harald

You have r8169 not r8139 (which actually isn't the name of an existing
module, though there are 8139cp and 8139too).

This bug was previously reported
 and fixed upstream
(commit 523a609496dbc3897e530db2a2f27650d125ea00).  It will probably be
possible to apply this fix in a stable update.

Bug#501935: Info received (USB mass storage devica (Pentax Optio E50 camera) is not accesible with USB cable)

[Virgo Pärna]

Newest kernels should now have workarounds in it (2.6.27 should also
have it backported - but not for 2.6.26 (I think)). The problem was,
that several devices report invalid sector count (1 more then there is)
and that causes problems, when attempt is made to read last sector.
Newest kernels have workaround for all Nikon, Pentax, Nokia and Motorola
devices. I'm also including entire message text about adding update to
2.6.27 tree. But udev change helped to work around it in existing system.



This is a note to let you know that we have just queued up the patch titled

Subject: USB: usb-storage: add Pentax to the bad-vendor list

This patch (as1202) adds Pentax to usb-storage's list of bad vendors
whose devices always need the CAPACITY_HEURISTICS flag.  This is in
addition to the existing entries: Nokia, Nikon, and Motorola.
